The Catholic Campaign for Human Development

The Chicago Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) is the Archdiocese of Chicago's anti-poverty program. Founded in 1970, Chicago CCHD's mission is to address the root causes of poverty in the Archdiocese through grants and education programs. Chicago CCHD seeks to promote a more just society, one in which all people, but especially the poor, are empowered to participate fully in society.
